time never speaks

Lu Xiancang watched the video on the computer intently. If Chen Yin was here, he would find that the video Lu Xiancang was watching was exactly the news he saw on the TV.

This piece of news is not long, just over a minute.But Lu Xiancang's brows became more and more wrinkled in the female anchor's standard voice.It wasn't until the end of the video that he averted his gaze. After a moment of silence, he sighed.

"The Land Bureau..."

Someone opened his mouth cautiously.

"I can't hide it..."

Lu Xiancang talked to himself, and then he raised his eyes to Chi Yunran who was standing in front of the desk.

Like him, Chi Yunran's eyes were full of worry.

Lu Xiancang thought for a while, and said: "Over at Huacheng, has it really been confirmed that there is a person named Luo Zuji among the dead?"

Chi Yunran picked up the folder under his arm and opened it: "According to the DNA comparison of the sample provided by the internal informant and the deceased at the scene, it was determined that the match between deceased No. 3 and the sample reached 99.99%. So...from From the inspection point of view, Luo Zuji should be dead."

Lu Xiancang said: "You just said, should it be?"

After Chi Yunran was silent for a while, he said softly: "Although I haven't seen Luo Zuji with my own eyes, I have talked with his daughter, and I can tell from his daughter that Luo Zuji is a thoughtful person. He seldom appears in person to deal with matters. But if he appears in person, it means that he is absolutely sure of the matter. So...it is hard for me to say that he really died in the warehouse. "

"I can understand your worries." Lu Xiancang also sighed: "The hall master who can become one of the four halls of 'Longevity' will not die so easily. But, don't forget, who led them there .”

Chi Yunran was silent again.

She understood that if it wasn't for the fact that her name was written in 'not old', she would not be qualified to discuss this matter with Bureau Lu alone.However, after seeing the document sent from Huacheng, she would rather never know about it!

Under Lu Xiancang's gaze, Chi Yunran said shyly, "Is it really him?"

Lu Xiancang remained silent.

"But there is obviously no body at the scene!" Chi Yunran couldn't help but said, "The absence of a body means he is still alive!"

Lu Xiancang closed his eyes: "Without a corpse, it is indeed possible to be alive. But there is another possibility—"

Chi Yunran froze for a moment, another possibility?What will it be?

"If he treats himself as a dynamite kit, how can he leave a dead body?"

Chi Yunran's face turned pale in an instant.

Indeed, the fact that no corpse was found may also be because the corpse had been bombed to pieces long ago. How could there be a corpse?

But...but...

He is also a thoughtful person, would he resolutely die without thinking of the way out?

Chi Yunran really couldn't believe it, but in front of the cruel reality, she had to believe it.

"This matter..." Chi Yunran paused, "Do you want to tell Team Chen?"

Lu Xiancang looked at Chi Yunran and said, "What do you think?"

"Yu Gong, Team Chen is also a participant. He knows that the follow-up of the Huacheng incident should be taken for granted. Yu private..." Chi Yunran paused, as if he couldn't bear it: "Their relationship is so good, don't let Team Chen You know, isn't it too much?"

Naturally, Lu Xiancang knew what Chi Yunran meant by "the relationship is so good".

It can be said that Lu Xiancang appreciates Chen Yin very much, not only because he is his junior, but also because he thinks Chen Yin is a rational person.Lu Xiancang has always admired rational people, such people are clear-headed enough.

But when Lu Xiancang saw the blood-stained ring box, everything... became a little subtle.

Is the box that Chen Yin clings to even in a coma, is it Chen Yin's rare loss of sanity?

Lu Xiancang didn't know how to deal with the matter of these two people, he felt...

"Bang bang bang."

Someone knocked on the office door suddenly, and Lu Xiancang frowned: "Didn't I say that other people are not allowed to come over during the conversation? Who came here again?"

In the tone, there is a rare sternness.

Chi Yunran also looked at it, then looked back at Lu Xiancang: "Ju Lu, I'll go see who it is."

"Bang bang bang."

Hearing the urgency in the knock on the door, Chi Yunran walked over quickly, and just turned the doorknob: "Didn't Bureau Lu say that during the conversation... Team Chen is not allowed?! Why are you here?!"

There was an unconcealable astonishment in his voice.

Upon hearing the word "Team Chen", Lu Xiancang got up from his chair, and seeing Chi Yunran step aside, the man in casual clothes looked over panting.Lu Xiancang frowned, but when he saw Chen Yin's ugly face, he frowned even more.

"Chen Yin, why are you here?" Lu Xiancang looked at the lower right corner of the computer: "I remember that you should be... not returning to the team until the day after tomorrow? Why did you come here early?"

Lu Xiancang's voice was full of calm, without any abnormalities.Looking at it, Chi Yunran could only praise in his heart, "It's a good thing it's Bureau Lu".

As for her?She could only pretend that she didn't exist while Chen Yin and Lu Xiancang looked at each other. Since Director Lu hasn't said whether to tell Chen Yin about this, she should just be a quail with peace of mind.

After seeing the news, Chen Yin rushed downstairs and rode a battery car all the way to the bureau.He was so fast that he was almost copied by the traffic police. After entering the game, he was almost regarded as a suspicious person because he was too reckless. If not for a familiar colleague who came to rescue him, he might not be able to find Lu Xiancang's office.

Therefore, Chen Yin didn't care about Chi Yunran's complicated mood, he just tried to adjust his breathing: he used the adjustment method that the female doctor named Li Yiru told him.Otherwise, the place where he was injured would be very painful.

Chen Yin stood up straight, looked at Lu Xiancang, raised his hand and saluted: "I'm sorry, Director Lu, I'm the one who disturbed you. But... I have something urgent and I want to ask you to confirm."

Lu Xian said indifferently: "What can make you run all the way to see me even out of breath?"

After Chen Yin was silent for a while, he said, "I saw the news."

After the first sentence was spoken, the second sentence followed naturally: "I recognize the warehouse mentioned in the news, it is the site of 'Longevity'."

Lu Xiancang looked at Chen Yin and said, "So?"

"...Generally speaking, the behavior of the police will not be directly broadcast on the news. If it is to be broadcast, it will be after the mission is completed. But now there is news related to 'Longevity'. If it is not for the mission to be closed, That's..." Chen Yin looked at Lu Xiancang, and said softly: "The matter is too big to hide from ordinary people, right?"

Lu Xiancang closed his eyes, with a hint of tiredness in his expression.

Chi Yunran looked at Chen Yin, then at Lu Xiancang, wondering if he should add a sentence.

"Are you here just for this matter?" Lu Xiancang said calmly.

"As someone who has participated in the 'Not Old' action, I should be qualified to know about the action, right?" Seeing that Lu Xiancang was still silent, Chen Yin couldn't help but said: "So... Director Lu, I can know the specific process of this matter ?"

Lu Xiancang was silent for a moment, and then said: "It's clearer when you pass through Huacheng. We are here because someone has participated in it... Forget it, Chi Yunran, read the document to him."

"Oh, good." Chi Yunran opened the folder again, scanned the content of the file, didn't know where to start, but had to say: "At 9:[-] pm on XX, I received an internal report..."

Chen Yin listened silently, his expression did not change.

"At 11:11 p.m., nearby residents heard gunshots near the warehouse. At around 11:40 p.m., the gunfire stopped. At [-]:[-] p.m., an explosion occurred in the warehouse."

"The on-site monitoring was damaged, and the direction of arrival could not be identified. However, according to the damaged vehicles and on-site survey, there should be more than 35 people entering the warehouse."

Hearing this, Chen Yin's five fingers slowly tightened.He originally thought that he could face and deal with it calmly, but when Chi Yunran read out the words "Luo Zuji", he just felt that the tense heartstrings broke with a "snap".

Chi Yunran looked at Chen Yin, who was trembling slightly, she skipped some parts and didn't read them all, just because she was afraid that her good captain would not be able to raise her breath and fainted.

But why does she feel that reciting all of them has the same effect as not reciting all of them? !Team Chen isn't going to faint, is he? !

"Chen, Team Chen..." Chi Yunran called cautiously: "Are you okay? Your face looks so ugly, do you want to go to the hospital?"

"Luo Zuji, dead?" Chen Yin asked suddenly.

"...According to the DNA comparison, he...should be dead."

After the words fell, Chi Yunran saw Chen Yin turn his head and looked over: "You just said so much, but you didn't say the most important thing, why didn't you say it?"

"I..." Chi Yunran really wanted to say that I was afraid you couldn't bear it, but when she saw Chen Yin's eyes... she was shocked.

Although Chen Yin is not the kind of person who likes to laugh, but his gentle expression and calm eyes will also warm people's hearts.

But at this moment, the warmth in Chen Yin's eyes disappeared, leaving behind a lot of melancholy.At the same time, Chen Yin raised the corners of his mouth, obviously smiling, but it made people feel a burst of pain and sourness.

Chen Yin said softly: "Aren't you afraid that I will guess the key person to carry out the task? But..." He let out a soft breath, and said: "The person who can introduce Luo Zuji into the warehouse is either The person he finds interesting, if it is not interesting, he will not enter the warehouse with someone he doesn't care about. Or, it is someone with a high position in the 'Longevity' group. If the status is not high, it is impossible for Luo Zu I just took a look. Chi Yunran is so guarded against me, so I must know this person. I don't know many people in 'Changsheng', only a few. So," he paused, said: "Yes Ying He?"

Chi Yunran lowered her head and looked at the two words on the paper: Daohua.

"If you don't speak, you're acquiescing." Chen Yin looked at Lu Xiancang, and asked calmly, "What's wrong with Ying He? Injured? Amnesia? Or..."

"No!" Just as Lu Xiancang was about to speak, Chi Yunran said decisively: "If Ying He's body was not found at the scene, he may not be dead! Team Chen, don't talk nonsense!"

It was obviously comforting words, but Chen Yin's reaction was exactly the same as Lu Xiancang's: he closed his eyes and looked tired: "If this is the case, why don't you dare tell me? What are you afraid of revealing?"

"Then you're going to think he's dead!" Chi Yunran said with a hint of anger in his voice, "He's such a smart person, he can even protect the two of us, so why can't he protect himself?!"

No, you don't know... Perhaps, it was because we saved the two of us that he fell into a more dangerous environment.

"Chen Yin." Lu Xiancang's voice sounded in his ear, Chen Yin raised his eyes and looked at the director.

Surprisingly, Lu Xiancang did not deny Chen Yin's words, but also gave the same answer as Chi Yunran.

He said: "Although we don't know whether Ying He is alive or dead, if even you think he is dead, then who else in this world would believe that he is still alive?"

Both Chen Yin and Chi Yunran were stunned for a moment. Chi Yunran was because of the director's words: they all said that the director was serious and strict with himself.But, but... the chief will also comfort people!still so gentle...

To Chen Yin, it was like thunder and deafening.

Yes, if he didn't believe it, then who in this world would believe that Ying He was still alive?

Even if it is an illusory hope, as long as he firmly believes, who can say that hope cannot come true?

The bureau also forgot when Chen Yin left. He was pushing the battery car on the street while thinking about what Lu Xiancang said over and over again in his mind.

I don't know how long I walked, I don't know where I went, and my footsteps never stopped.

Suddenly a gust of wind blew by, and a lot of withered and yellow leaves fell down in a clatter, and two of them also fell on the head, awakening the person who was contemplating.

Chen Yin took the leaf away, raised his head, and was taken aback for a moment, seeing a familiar neighborhood in front of him.

It's not the old-fashioned residential area where his home is located, but... the neighborhood where he and Ying He bought the house.

"Chen Yin? Hey, are you Chen Yin?!"

Hearing someone calling him suddenly, Chen Yin turned his head, and the old guard sitting in the guard room waved to him: "It's really you, come here quickly, I have your mail."

"My mail?" Chen Yin parked the battery car and walked over: "Who sent me the mail?"

The doorman rummaged through the table piled with a lot of things, and answered Chen Yin with a strong Chucheng accent: "I don't know, it's been a long time since the mail arrived, but I just haven't seen you come back, where are you going?" Already?"

"Me? I've been at my mother's place for more than a month, and I haven't come back...Hey, can you see if it's the one below? I see the blue sharp corner."

The doorman stopped his hand, pinched the blue sharp corner from under the thing, and yanked it hard——

"Huh, I took it out. Let me take a look... Well, it's this one, sent from Huacheng."

Just in time, Chen Yin took the mail and saw the postmark on it clearly: from Huacheng.
